A dead man was found floating in the Hudson River off Harlem on Sunday morning, police said.

Law enforcement officials were summoned to the area close to Dyckman Street by the Henry Hudson Parkway a little after 9:30 a.m. where they discovered the body in the water, according to a spokesperson from the New York Police Department.

Cops from the 34th Precinct, as well as firefighters and the NYPD harbor and marine units, responded to the scene.

Post photos show workers from the coroner’s office hauling the corpse away in a body bag.

The man, believed to be in his 40s based on information from sources, has not yet been identified, and further inquiries are needed to determine the cause of his death, which will be done by the city’s medical examiner.

Earlier in the month, law enforcement retrieved three bodies from the East River within a single day, one of which was a 15-year-old girl who had disappeared from Roosevelt Island the previous week, as stated by the police.

Grace Ilogene’s body was spotted floating in the fast-moving river June 6, swept away by the current after telling a friend she was going for a dip even though she couldn’t swim. 

Cops also responded to a 911 call about an unconscious man in the water just after 6 a.m. near the Brooklyn Bridge that day, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The same day, another man was spotted by a 911 caller floating in the water near 34th Street and FDR Drive just before 7 p.m. He was taken to Pier 16 and pronounced dead, police said.
